morning.

The sun is very strong and the temperature is very high.

On the road leading to Haitian City, farmers wearing straw hats were bending down to do farm work in the fields. In the past few days when the Mongolians attacked the city, all the people were so scared that they closed their doors and did not dare to go out.

They delayed a lot of farm work.

A group of people and horses walked along the road and headed straight for Haitian City. It was very large, with 20,000 to 30,000 people, and one large baggage vehicle followed another.

The flag in front is "Wu".

The common people raised their heads in surprise, looked at the banner with the word "Wu" and stared at the team. Ordinary people, of course, were illiterate.

But because Wu Nian was so famous in Liaodong, many people recognized the word "Wu". And looking at this group of troops, they were all dressed as Han soldiers.

The answer is ready to come out.

"Did General Fu Han himself lead the army to Haitian City?"

"That should be it. You see, the ones next to them are "Zhang" and "Wang". Zhang Sheng and Wang Gui, the two captains, are the left and right captains of the General of the Han Dynasty and are in charge of the personal soldiers."

"He is really the general who assisted the Han Dynasty. He has arrived in Haitian City."

The people talked a lot, and when the army passed in front of them, they lowered their heads to show respect.

The prestige of the Wei family in Haitian City is already very high.

In the previous battle, Wei Ru personally repelled the attack of four thousand households. The news had spread throughout the county, which made Wei Ru's reputation even greater. Along with Wu Nian's prestige, it also increased.

In other places, Wu Nian took his captains with him to increase his prestige.

In Haitian City, it's the other way around.

Wu Nian only cared about Wei Ru's safety. Although the march was already very fast, Wu Nian still felt it was too slow.

Besides, we have reached the territory of Haitian County, and there is no danger. Wu Nian raised his head and said to Wang Gui beside him: "Brother, you and Zhang Sheng lead the army and continue forward. I will leave first."

After saying that, without waiting for Wang Gui's answer, Wu Nian raised his golden whip and galloped towards Haitian City.

"Cavalry, hurry up and catch up." Wang Gui quickly ordered the cavalry around him. More than a hundred cavalrymen immediately clamped their legs on the horse's belly and galloped after him on their horses.

The light cavalry gallops very quickly.

The city walls of Haitian City caught Wu Nian's eyes. Wu Nian was refreshed and whipped up his horse.

"drive!!!"

Haitian City has just experienced a bloody battle, and the spirits of the soldiers are still tense. However, the city gate has been opened, allowing people to enter and exit.

It’s just that not many people went in and out of the city.

The soldiers had already been greeted, and Wu Nian would arrive today with a large number of soldiers. So they were not nervous when they saw these more than a hundred cavalry.

Soon they saw Wu Nian's face clearly and were completely relieved.

"General."

The soldiers all lowered their heads and called themselves generals. Wu Nian was anxious to defend his country, so he rarely ignored the soldiers and rode directly into the city.

The soldiers looked at Wu Nian's anxious look and guessed it.

"The general is in a hurry. I'm afraid the captain's illness is very serious."

"What nonsense are you talking about? The captain is strong and young, how can he be seriously ill? I think he will get better soon."

"I also think it might be serious."

The soldiers were talking a lot, whether they were worried or arrogant, their expressions were very solemn and a little frustrated.

The general is the soul of an army.

Wei Ru is usually very strict in leading his troops, but he is also very good at fighting soldiers. Moreover, Wei Ru is brave and good at fighting, and is known as "Rouge Tiger".

The general and the army complement each other, and their combat effectiveness has been improved by more than one step.

If Wei Ru died, the soldiers under her command would definitely not collapse, but their morale would definitely be damaged.

After entering the city, Wu Nian slowed down his horse speed to avoid hitting the people. According to the memory in his mind, he headed straight for the Wei family's old house.

Not long after, he came to the gate of the Wei family's old house.

"General." The guards in front of the door all recognized Wu Nian and bent down to salute. Wu Nian looked up at the door, his eyes a little dazed.

When Wei Changqing fought in the city, the Wei family's old house may have been damaged, but this gate may have been rebuilt.

"Thank you for your hard work." Wu Nian withdrew his gaze, got off his horse, said something to the guards, and then entered the gate. Twenty of the accompanying cavalry followed, and the rest stayed outside the gate.

Wu Nian soon met Wei Hong, who was walking towards him. His eyes were bloodshot, his face was pale, his hair was messy, and he looked haggard.

"General." After seeing Wu Nian, he immediately stood up and saluted.

"Take me to see her." Wu Nian said.

"Yes." Wei Hong responded and immediately turned around to lead the way. Soon after, Wu Nian entered a room full of medicinal smell.

Smelling the pungent smell of the medicine, Wu Nian frowned. When he came to the inner room, he saw Wei Ru lying on the bed.

She usually has a dashing appearance, but her little face is as white as paper, her eyes are tightly closed, and her breathing is weak.

Wu Nian felt very distressed when he saw her look. He sat down on the round stool in front of the bed and bent down to look at her.

There were some female soldiers guarding Wei Ru in front of the bed. They saw Wu Nian was about to salute. Wei Hong waved his hand and let them go down.

"Sister." Wu Nian's throat was dry and he called out sadly. Then he stretched out his hand and tested Wei Ru's forehead.

The weather is very hot now. Wei Ru's body is covered with a thin quilt, but his forehead is very cold.

Wu Nian, who had always remained motionless after a hundred battles, felt his heart tremble. He looked up at Wei Hong and asked, "How is the situation?"

"It's not getting better, but it's not getting worse either." Wei Hong shook his head and said.

"Is there anything I can do to help?" Wu Nian didn't know whether to be happy or depressed. After being silent for a long time, he raised his head and asked.

"No. There are the best doctors watching over you all the time. There are also many precious medicinal materials. With all due respect, whether you can survive this or not depends on your life."

Wei Hong sighed and lowered his head as he walked down the aisle.

"Don't worry. Her life is tougher than that of a dog. She will definitely survive." Wu Nian said firmly.

"Yeah." Wei Hong hummed, feeling a little more energetic. The two stayed in the inner room for a while, then got up and left.

They couldn't help much, and they delayed the female soldiers and the doctors to take care of Wei Ru. In fact, there are specialties in the art.

It's really a martial art that is of no use.

They came to sit down in the living room next to each other. Wu Nian was very worried about Wei Ru and was really sad, so he had to find a topic to divert his attention.

"Wei Qianhu. How were your Wanhu's losses in this battle?" Wu Nian raised his head and asked.

"Report to General. More than 1,500 people died and three to four thousand were injured. More than half of the militiamen who participated in the battle were killed or injured." Wei Hong shook his head slightly and sighed.

Wei Ru's bravery brought unexpected benefits. They captured Haitian City at a small cost, and their forces successfully entered Huanglong Mansion. They also caused at least twice as many casualties to the Mongolian people as their own.

Judging from the outcome of the war, it is gratifying.

But the dead are still heartbreaking.

"The casualties are a bit serious." Wu Nian also frowned and sighed.
